Cause for a Lump in the Throat

A goiter is caused by your thyroid being attacked by your own antibodies leading to inflammation and swelling.

This is classified as an autoimmune disorder.

The health of the thyroid is compromised by a myriad of causes such as
halogens and toxins.
These block iodine from being absorbed by the thyroid.

This prevents the thyroid from functioning properly.

If left untreated, the inflammation continues with eventual destruction of the gland.

The improper functioning of the thyroid causes hypothyroidism. More information on this condition can be found at
MedLinePlus.
A balanced thyroid is crucial because it regulates your hormones, metabolism and growth.

Contrary to the information provided on MedLinePlus,which states
there is no prevention available for this conditon - there is.

Prevention may be achieved by detoxification of the body from
known halogens. A
mercury detox
not only removes these neurotoxins from the body, it can be done safely and effectively.

Using
iodine
as a detoxing agent is one of the easiest and cheapest ways to cleanse your body.
